diy packaway sail cover

[rob]

I'm trying to find the issue of PBO on a DIY packaway sail cover.
I've searched my back issues but miss a few, so, more than likely it will be in one of them.
Anyone found this article and know what issue it is I would be very greatful.

Read the article only last week but cannot find it now. However, remember the lessons.

Use double sided tape to hold hems and seams while stitching but do not stitch through the tapeas it gums up the needle. Use a needle for leather that has a chisel edge and measure twice and cut once.

Cannot remember the zip size but it was large. Used round sail batons as the edge support.

Will look again for the article

Did you ever get a copy of this article? I'm thinking about converting my standard sail cover to a packaway and could do with some insight.

thanks
